Transcriptional effects of CSB and the CSB-PGBD3 fusion protein in CSB-null UVSS1KO cells

ABSTRACT: Cockayne syndrome is a segmental progeria most often caused by mutations in the CSB gene encoding a SWI/SNF-like ATPase required for transcription-coupled DNA repair (TCR). Over 43 Mya before marmosets diverged from humans, a piggyBac3 (PGBD3) transposable element integrated into intron 5 of the CSB gene. As a result, primate CSB genes now generate both CSB protein and a conserved CSB-PGBD3 fusion protein in which the first 5 exons of CSB are alternatively spliced to the PGBD3 transposase. We show by microarray analysis that expression of the fusion protein alone in CSB-null UV-sensitive syndrome cells (UVSS1KO) cells induces an interferon-like response that resembles both the innate antiviral response and the prolonged interferon response normally maintained by unphosphorylated STAT1 (U-STAT1); moreover, as might be expected based on conservation of the fusion protein, this potentially cytotoxic interferon-like response is largely reversed by coexpression of functional CSB protein. Interestingly, expression of CSB and the CSB-PGBD3 fusion protein together, but neither alone, upregulates the insulin growth factor binding protein IGFBP5 and downregulates IGFBP7, suggesting that the fusion protein may also confer a metabolic advantage, perhaps in the presence of DNA damage. Finally, we show that the fusion protein binds in vitro to members of a dispersed family of 900 internally deleted piggyBac elements known as MER85s, providing a potential mechanism by which the fusion protein could exert widespread effects on gene expression. Our data suggest that the CSB-PGBD3 fusion protein is important in both health and disease, and could play a role in Cockayne syndrome. 12 samples total; 4 gene expression conditions in triplicate; 1 condition is a tag-only negative control

Project description:Cockayne syndrome is an inherited premature aging syndrome associated with developmental and neurological disorders. Mutations in the genomic locus encoding CSB are associated with 80% Cockayne syndrome cases. Transcription profiling assays reveal the association of mis-regulation of gene expression with Cockayne syndrome, highlighting the importance of CSB in transcription regulation. However, many questions remain unanswered as how CSB regulates transcription. In this study, we dissect the mechanisms by which CSB regulates transcription during normal growth. By anti-CSB chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by deep sequencing, we found CSB is enriched at genomic regions containing TGASTCA motifs, to which the immediate early gene product C-Jun binds specifically. We further demonstrate that c-Jun co-immunoprecipitates with CSB. In addition, the targeting of CSB to genomic region containing TGASTCA motifs was drastically reduced in cells treated c-Jun shRNA. Reverse transcription followed by quantitative PCR indicates that CSB can regulate gene expression nearby its binding sites, both in activation and repression. The remodeling defective CSBM-bM-^HM-^FN1 mutant is also targeted to TGASTCA motifs, but cannot always substitute CSB function in transcription regulating, suggesting the importance of remodeling by CSB in transcription regulation. Notably, the Cockayne syndrome related mutation encoding protein CSBR670W, which is defective in ATP hydrolysis but is targeted to TGASTCA motifs efficiently, indicating that ATP hydrolysis is dispensable for c-Jun mediated CSB targeting, in sharp contrast to the ATP-dependent targeting mechanism by which CSB is relocated to DNA lesion stalled transcription. Together, these results reveal a second CSB targeting mechanism in which DNA sequence specific transcription factor c-Jun targets CSB to specific genomic region and regulate gene expression.
